English: This map of Hiw (Torres Islands) shows some of the place names which are used by the local population, in Hiw. I have collected these place names while I was doing linguistic fieldwork in these islands. The spelling chosen here is a compromise between local phonologies/orthographies, and Western keyboards or usages. I would personally encourage the use of these transcriptions in further toponymic work on this area; except perhaps for the island names, which have been known under slightly different transcriptions in the literature. See Discussion page for further issues (spelling, etc). Red dots = inhabited villages; Pink dots = ancient villages, now deserted.
